    Penny: I’m sure I’d be filled with delight during the arctic summer, but I’m not sure how well I’d do in December. Christmas lights are a huge help with the addition of Vitamin D3 here at the 45th parallel. I take the D3 year around and don’t change the dose just because of the day length. It is only January 8 and I’m already noticing the increased light and feeling good about it. :smiley:

    Felicia: It sounds like you’re having a great trip. Enjoy every minute. :star:

    I have a city meeting to attend this evening and I’m looking forward to it.

    Checking in. I’m somewhat caught up. I know I missed a lot with my skimming through.

    I just needed to pop on and share this photo I stole from FB which just screamed Lisa in Arkansas.

    Hi everyone, it appears that MFP is experiencing difficulties with the food. I can track if it's in my list, but if I search for a food I cannot add that to my diary. Hope it's fixed soon.

    Ollie is doing great. I think he thinks he just went for a playdate. <3

    Bonnie, are you using your phone to log? I'm not having trouble logging on my PC - but it was acting up a few weeks ago. Glad Ollie is doing great. Love his ears by the way. <3

    @lhscapil, I was able to log everything on my phone, but not my laptop.

    Hi gals. I've read all the posts but can't stay up long enough to comment on everyone! I'm going to bed as soon as DH calls; I didn't sleep well last night and I'm practically drooling here.

    Welcome to the newbies; you will enjoy being here!

    Katiebug: OMG I about choked I laughed so hard at the cat/egg picture. That was hilarious!

    Penny: I will have to come visit you someday....that picture is mesmerizing!

    OK friends, Hope tomorrow is great. Meg from Omaha

    @BonnieHosk85 Since you are on your laptop but have no problem on your phone, your laptop may not be connected to the internet. The app doesn’t have access to search for foods. You may briefly see a bar at the top saying something about local.

    Margaret There are at least a bajillion youtube recordings at various frequencies. First of all, I am completely ignorant of whatever research there may be on which frequencies might be healing or sleep-inducing or calming. Second, from reading some of the comments, apparently some of the frequencies on youtube are "bogus". People have tested them with frequency monitors.

    How did you figure out what to listen to?

    Hi all!
    I'm going to spend the day preparing for my dinner party. Yes, I know I don't have to go to a lot of trouble, but I've been promising them (younger son and my daughter in law) a proper dinner since we've been here. We always see them in a rush, or with the grandkids, so this will be a 'grown up' occasion. :bigsmile:
    Going to do the works, candles, flowers, three courses plus cheese.
    The dessert is mainly done - the brownies. Going to add chocolate sauce and think about vanilla ice cream. :o
    The venison in red wine main course is done. Going to have spinach on the side and a potato and celeriac gratin. I'm going to do them in small, brightly coloured, ceramic pots. :D
    The starter is locally smoked mackerel, plus a (bought) salmon and roe sushi. Served with lightly home pickled carrot and zucchini, watercress and horseradish sauce.
    Cheese is Camembert and strong local cheddar.

    Should be good. All wine, sparkling, rosé and red, will be AF, because my son is a recovering alcoholic. :D<3

    Last night's visit from my friends went well. I could see that DH was uncomfortable as they were very 'loud' , but he did his best. I would prefer just to see her, but it was fine. I was good on calories as I had got a 5k run in as well as my exercise session.

    Will just do the exercises session today. Small portions are in order tonight.

    Love Heather UK xxxxxxx

    I haven't been trying to lose weight in an orderly way for over a year but am back trying in here again.
    I had to laugh when I saw that I've only lost 3 lbs. since the last time I logged in here. There have been gains and losses; attempts and binges. And my weight is about the same.
    I have 25 lbs. to lose and am aiming for doing it over the next seven or eight months. My metabolism has always been very, VERY slow. And now that I'm 66 and have some joint issues, I don't do a lot to get it revved up.
    I'm a yoga and meditation teacher with my own small studio. I'm planning to close it up for a year and take an extended vacation with my DH when he retires soon. We hope to be in India (where we've been before) for six months and then China, Alaska, the NW US, Toronto and Nova Scotia for the following six months.
    You guys seem like a pretty big group. Kind of hard to keep track of everybody. I hope to catch on to what's going on with you, though.

    Take Down Christmas Decorations!! I might be able to pencil that in for the weekend of Jan 19/20 ... or maybe Feb 2/3.
